Pseudoconchylis Walsinghamf does not belong in the Phalo- 

 niinae where it was originally placed and has since been retained in 

 our lists. It is a genus of the Tineidae. Phalonia unistrigana 

 Dyar,J is also a Tineid and belongs to this genus. It is exceed- 

 ingly close to if not identical with laticapitana, Walsingham ; but 

 considering the different localities it will be safer to retain it as 

 distinct specifically until more material is at hand or the life his- 

 tory is worked out. 



Thyraylia Walsinghamf, type Phalonia buntcana Robinson, I 

 am unable to consider a valid genus. None of the characters 

 given by Lord Walsingham differ from those of typical Phalonia. 

 The males of hunieana have a curious secondary sexual character 

 not mentioned by Lord Walsingham, namely, a costal fold on the 

 hind wings, involving vein 8; but this should not be given more 

 than specific importance. A similar fold, sometimes containing 

 a hairpencil, is found in the males of several other species of 

 Phalonia, as jelix Walsingham, rupicola Curtis, manniana Fabri- 

 cius, and to a less extent, not involving vein 8, in others, as rutilana 

 Hiibner and badiana Hiibner; but it is not found in species other- 

 wise closely related to these. 



Anisotcenia Stephens, which is placed by Mr. E- Meyrick || in 

 this subfamily, has vein 2 of the fore wing arising before the outer
